Nope managed to get $13k off sticker since its the 2004, but i dont mind.. the new 2005 changes are minimal and i got a killer deal after DAYS of negotiations.

Its brand new, not even 30 miles when i bought it, not 30k, just 30

Hi Polak !

Congratuationsfor your car it's beautiful, it's one of my favourite car, I test one as yours it was black/black and I can tell you that I will never forget this car... BTW I'd like to know wich one do you prefer between the CLK and the M3, I am a big M3 fan but I never drive one so I don't know what is really look like...

see you

I duno, both are amazing cars, however, I like the sound of the CLK55 engine, it sounds much more aggressive. Over both cars, I prefer the CLK in sunny days (since It's a cabrio) and M3 in the rainy/overecast days

They are both pretty much the same thing in performance, however the CLK55 has more comfort while driving. The M3 looks meaner from the outside.

So Overall, Im very happy with both cars. I can't really say which I prefer more.

Ya took me a while, but after about 6 days of haggling, on site and on phone, the dealership finally cracked and sold the car. (Thanks to my father, hes a pro...) At first we were aiming for 18k off, but obviously we started ridiculously high, but it ended up going good. Even if I only got $8k off, I still woulda purchased the car.

And yes, they are 17's however after winter I will be buying new rims. I'm thinking of 19's.

Ok thank's for your answer, so I will buy a CLK and a M3

see you...

BTW go for the 19'' wheels why not choose the AMG's which are available for the SL55
